this board. Investing in companies and earning a return on those investments is now Communism.
I think the government investing your money without your consent, in the companies of their choice, feels communistic.

In support of what, exactly?
I'm trying to make sure people melting understand what is actually being discussed in OP. We can't discuss the merits of that until everyone engaged stops posting silliness, fantasy, and dishonesty

Exactly! Whatcha want to bet that the “companies of their choice” are their buddies Green companies.
This would be nothing but a huge transfer of wealth to further sink Europe.

This is why I never trust any elected official. No matter who it is.

Can they opt out? No
Well, why do we not connect the dots here.
There is $10trillion in private savings accounts. She estimates they can get $590billion. Since the second number is less than the first, this would point to people being able to opt out.

Yes, it is more risky, and that is a legitimate criticism. But they’re not being forced to do so.
If it’s being done with knowledge and consent of the owner, then I think that’s fine.

That's maybe a scintilla better but still shite.

No he's well into his "that's not what's happening" dance using semantics while refusing to condemn the thing being discussed.

You people kill me. You’re free to look up the details of these proposals. Or, you could just eat up the bullshite rage bait in the OP. I have a suspicion of what you will choose to do.

Also happens when you repeatedly demonstrate that you arent going to fight for your rights because you’ve got “too much to lose”.

but this just seems like a way for the banks to utilize the savings money while the consumer will see no difference
Aren't these deposits the way that banks can offer loans to people?
Would it change what the banks had on hand to count towards their loan offerings if $$ was moved to other investments?

Putting funds into more effective investments than a low-yield savings account.
What if my plans for my $$ requires it to be readily accessible without everyone taking a fee if I withdraw it from some approved program 'early'?
Maybe it's in the bank for a short term while I decide what I am doing with it.

Where are the proposals? The OP and others ragging on this haven't posted any details. Neither have you, SFP, or others that either support it or are doing the whole "BuT aKsHuAlLy" schtick.

Lacking details on what she's proposing, but being fairly familiar with how the EU has been operating since its formation (especially over the past ~10 years), I'm going to lean heavily towards there being frickery afoot. Europe taxes and regulates the shite out of their companies. If she were legitimately concerned about improving the economy, those would be the two main topics to address in her speech, not how much money people have saved up.
